Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-transforms-2] Is it necessary to serialize all 3 components of translate given the 3rd component is 0px (#3305)

> This issue is about the translate, rotate, scale properties, not the transform property's functions. The suggestion is not that Blink change the transform property "non-binding hint" behavior; simply that translate etc. need not carry that behavior forwards as there is no web-compat need; authors can use will-change (or a paused animation) as a standards-based approach.

Right, I understand. But I don't like behavior being inconsistent when consistency isn't too bad, even if it's with a legacy bug.

That said...

and 

> All 4 browser engines serialize the gCS result for transform: scale3d(3, 2, 1) as matrix(3, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0), i.e. they don't report a matrix3d result.

both argue that the quirk should be removeable, which is great! If that's the case, happy to change all the supporting specs to match, and only consider something 3d if it's actually outside the screen's plane.
